This "feel good crap" has an established causal relationship with lower instances of crime, lower abuse rates, and lower drop-out rates. The thread is about Neo-Nazi groups, which can be stopped before they start by simply giving children the emotional and intellectual technologies they need to move away from hate and ignorance. The problem is that schools are standardized test-oriented instead of being oriented to helping children develop into adults.
